Joy to the world; the Lord is come! Let earth receive her King; Let every heart prepare Him room, And heaven and nature sing.
2. Joy to the world; the Saviour reigns! Let men their songs employ; While fields and floods, rocks, hills, and plains, Repeat the sounding joy.
3. He rules the world with truth and grace; And makes the nations prove The glories of His righteousness, And wonders of His love.
